Taller Than Trees

[Refrão]
 
G              C       G 
On your knees, you are taller than trees 
        G         A7            D7 
You can look over heartache and pain 
        G        G7          C            G 
When my faith is gone, to my knees I will go 
        C            D7          G 
Growing stronger and taller than trees 
 


[Verso 1]
 
G                       C          G 
   One night - it was a long time ago, now - I knelt at my mother's knee 
G                     A7                D7 
   And she said, "Son, lift up your eyes to Him in the skies 
             G                       G7        C       G 
And you'll grow like the mighty oaks. But you, son, created in the image of God 
C                    D7                               G 
   Can become taller, even taller than the tallest of trees" 
 


[Verso 2]
 
    A7                    D7 
And this was the answer I felt 
   A7                  D7 
As down at her knees I knelt

G                  C      G 
   "On your knees, you're taller than trees 
                            G     A7                          D7 
You can look over your heartaches, and son, you can look over all of your pain" 
        G        G7          C            G 
When my faith is gone, to my knees I will go 
        C            D7          G 
Growing stronger and taller than trees
